This is similar to another thread out there right now - "all of the problems with the Touchpad". Even though this poll is not a full sample, it seems to indicate that only those who have an issue complain, and the VAST majority are not experiencing issues.

Conclusion: a few people who complain loudly make it seem like everyone is having issues. This sways uninformed public opinion towards the negative, even though the reality is the opposite. (I know, this is unusual - it never happens in things like politics or sports teams or any other arena.)

Really though There are zero wide spread 'issues', only minor problems and hugs that are related to the OS and apps.... Anything else is just the unlucky individual that got the one in 1,000 units hat was bad -remember how many were sold/ bought up in the last week, its very disproportionate to what happens normally
